SPEAKER OLIVER: ‘ASSEMBLY HAS IDEAS ON ATLANTIC CITY’

Assembly Speaker Sheila Oliver had the following published Thursday in The Philadelphia Inquirer:

“Amid much speculation that an agreement is near on a plan for Atlantic City’s future, I am making it very clear that much work remains to properly examine all facets of New Jersey’s sports, gaming, and entertainment industries.

“Assembly members have ideas, and I have no intention of deciding the proposed state takeover of Atlantic City without those ideas being discussed. Issues include the future of the Meadowlands; Monmouth Park; testimony before the panel that wrote the governor’s report; and details on how the report was compiled, since it was done outside of open-meetings laws.”
